IRAN'S BAGHAEI: EXCHANGE OF MESSAGES WITH US CONTINUES, DEPUTY FOREIGN MINISTER GHARIBABADI WAS IN DOHA TO FACILITATE THIS

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei confirmed that message exchanges with the United States are ongoing, with Deputy Foreign Minister Gharibabadi traveling to Doha to facilitate the channel. The headline indicates diplomatic contact rather than a reported agreement, so the immediate transmission runs through geopolitical risk premia rather than any settled policy change. Sustained back-channel engagement typically compresses perceived escalation risk, which can weigh on safe-haven demand and on oil through a lower Gulf supply-disruption premium, while dampening volatility in regional equities and currencies sensitive to sanctions outcomes. Iran-linked exposures, including sanctions-exposed Iranian instruments and Gulf energy names, are most sensitive, as are crude benchmarks where traders price shipping-route risk. Traders should watch for any official readout from Doha or Washington and Brent crude's reaction in the following sessions, since a concrete framework or a breakdown in talks would reprice that premium quickly.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
